How does she manage to keep her nursing license while being anti-vax? We truly are on the worst timeline.

What regulations?

What you’re saying isn’t in doubt, but it doesn’t fit the pattern of what I’m describing. Ofc there are people who oppose the Israel/Palestine war. I never said no one opposed it. I also never said I was for it.

The point of the description is there was a deluge. Daily multiples across forums, subs, endless. The deluge abruptly stopped on Nov 5. The genocide didn’t stop on Nov 5, but the endless fury of posts across social media did.

I understand that no one likes to face or feel manipulation, but there it is.

Yeah. We’re pretty much over as a country.

Maybe take a moment to watch Jon Oliver’s “AI Slop” show from 2? weeks ago.

I strongly suspect the endless spam of Pakistan/Israel horror posts across Lemmy and Reddit last year that abruptly cut off on Nov 5 was more of the same.

It’s a free show. With the right people it’s good, but I understand your feeling.

MAGAs are the gun owners. Mostly.

This is why I worry. It’s likely correct in that we’re heading for fallout. But here we are.

This is not my area. I’ve simply consumed a lot of Heather Cox Richardson. She’s a Harvard educated American History professor. Posts on YT. Not very popular last check.

It’s calm, historical perspective which I rather enjoy.

Here’s another issue. Can we believe any of the numbers being posted on federal .gov sites any more?

I’ve been reading a lot about the inception of the welfare Queen idea, as pushed by Reagan first in California and then in our government as a whole ever since. So I initially started reading this as Trump numbers to support that nonsense.

I want to believe it is what it says it is, a warning sign to us all.
